Response time indicator

A response time indicator may appear at the bottom right of forms and in List v2 list
views.

This indicator provides the processing time, including the total time and the time for each
step, for a completed transaction. In List v3, the administrator can add the glide.ui.list_v3.client.timings.roles property to allow specified
roles to see the response time.

The following example shows the response time for retrieving a filtered v2 list in a demo
instance.Figure 1. Response time in v2 lists

The response time text
is:

Response time(ms): 968, Network: 3, server: 548, browser: 417

In this example, the transaction took the following amount of processing time.

968 milliseconds total time

3 milliseconds moving data across the network

548 milliseconds on the server

417 milliseconds in the browser, rendering the HTML and parsing and executing
JavaScript

In List v3, the response time appears on the lower left for users whose role is specified in
the system property.

Figure 2. Response time in v3 lists

Response time appears on most pages. However, it does not appear for simple operations, such
as paging through a set of records or changing the sort order of a list, or for the first
transaction in a session.

To hide the response time in List v2 or forms, click the clock icon. Click the clock icon
again to show the response time.

Point to the clock to view a tooltip with the response time.

Administrators can disable the response time by setting the
glide.ui.response_time property to false.
